10 Epic Videos That Show You How To Dance Like No One’s Watching

1. An EPIC basketball fan stealing the show on the Jumbotron, dancing like NOBODY is watching

I don’t know who this kid is, but before the night was over at this Boston Celtics game, a stadium full of people got an awesome performance from this enthusiastic legend. Inspired by Bon Jovi’s “Living on a Prayer,” Jeremy Fry let loose, poured his heart into his moves, and absolutely killed it — all in front of thousands of strangers. There’s a lesson in Fry’s uninhibited energy, and maybe it’s that sometimes, what other people might think about you isn’t as important as taking the risk and GOING FOR IT.

2. An adorable group of Kenyan kids boogying down

This dancing troop in Kisii — a southwestern city of Kenya — performing for what seems like a group of cheering adults off-camera is a classic display of dancing ability and overall adorability.

3. Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi dancing like a boss

When it comes to the dance floor, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi absolutely owns it. In this clip — her first dance on Dancing With The Stars with Russian pro Sasha Farber as her dancing companion — Snooki cha chas her way around the stage, wowing audience members and fans alike.

4. This time-lapse of woman teaching herself how to dance over a year

5. These 11-month-old twins jamming to their dad’s song

With over 17 million views, it seemed like the whole world ended up watching these two lil’ buddys dance to their daddy’s guitar, but at the time, it was just their parents. Clearly taking cues from each other (at around :34 one has stopped dancing, the other looks over, they synch up, and start dancing again), watching the twins’ candid delight at their father’s music is one of the best ways to start your day.

6. This 10-year-old girl’s amazingly fierce dance routine

Whatever your thoughts on Kate Upton are, you can’t deny that she knows how to Dougie like a champion. Even when all eyes are on her (if I was sitting anywhere near Kate Upton at a basketball game, I know I’d be stealing glances), Kate lets loose and teaches her friends how to Dougie.

10. The Harlem Shake “Best of” video

The Harlem Shake video phenomenon is basically opposite the idea of “dance when no one’s watching,” but it still manages to catch the spirit of the motto: dance to have fun and get the most out of life. This video of families to entire offices wins the internet for capturing a brief moment in internet time that asked all of us to dance like no one was watching, record it, and upload it to YouTube.
